But there is one person who is not on the list of returning to the main creator-J.K. Rowling, the creator of the wizarding world.
According to the “Hollywood Reporter” report, J.K. Rowling will not be invited to make a new appearance in the special episode, but clips where she appeared in the past will appear on the show.
J.K. Rowling posted a “transphobia” remark on Twitter in June last year.
She said at the time that the term “menstruation” should not be used, and the term “woman” should be used directly (meaning that menstruation = female).
J.K. Rowling followed up with many related remarks, which caused huge controversy on the external network, and fans on the external network were almost overwhelmingly opposed to her.
To explain it a little bit more in plain language, J.K. Rowling probably means: If you have not had a “male-to-female” sex reassignment surgery, you can’t enter the women’s toilet.
In other words, if you did not have a male-to-female surgery, you are not a female.

Transgender people will be dissatisfied with this: It is not that surgery is necessary to become a female, if I psychologically think that I am a female, I am a female.
The slogan “Transgender women are women” comes from here.
After the controversy broke out, actors from the “Harry Potter” series such as Daniel, Emma, and Eddie Redmayne also issued opinions that contradicted J.K. Rowling-“transgender women are also women.”
In other words, J.K. Rowling almost annoyed the entire Hollywood.
The two largest “Harry Potter” fan sites also issued a joint statement last year, supporting transgender groups and rejecting J.K. Rowling’s remarks.
